Slideshow Widget Problem

Sometimes, the Motorola slideshow widget's buttons quit working. They become grayed out, and I can't change the photo or view a slideshow. This problem occurs almost daily. The only fix I've found is to remove the widget, then place a new one on the panel. I haven't been able to figure out what's causing the problem, either.
Is this a bug that needs to be fixed in an update, or am I missing something about the widget's functionality?
Additionally, the UI on other widgets sometimes becomes scrambled (ie, text or buttons are misaligned, or something of that nature), but only the appearance--not the functionality--is affected. Running advanced task killer fixes these problems, but it doesn't do anything when the slideshow widget messes up.

I have the same problem with the photo widget feature. My photos will change size and shape and not fill up the whole widget box. It has happened everyday on mine too.

  • Slideshow Widget and Composition Widget Synchronizing Problem

    I have a slideshow with images and composition widget of text that corresponds with each slide. The settings are the same for both, works fine on desktop yet on the tablet and iphone versions, they are messed up.
    Here's the BC site: dezinegirl
    I have been waiting for Customer Care via Chat to figure it out looking at my files, but it's been an HOUR and I don't think he knows.
    Anyone else have this issue?
    BTW: I am working with a purchased template.
    Thanks!

    Hi Pam,
    Instead of using the slideshow widget in sync with the composition widget, I will suggest that you switch to using one composition widget. Slideshow widgets does not allow text frame but composition widgets allows images as well as text frames. So you can allocate individual text frames to each target and that should give you the effect that you are looking for with no sync issues.
    Let me know if you need more clarifications on this.

  • My slideshow widget is stuck in the loading position.

    Hi,
    So I first uploaded my site to http://debijlgolf.businesscatalyst.com/frankrijk.html and the slideshow widget on the page is working perfectly.
    But now that I have uploaded the website to it's final destination, http://www.debijlgolf.nl/frankrijk.html, the slideshow widget just keeps showing me the loading thing.
    As far as I can tell the source code for both pages is the same (I also didn't change anything since uploading it to business catalyst), so does anyone know what the problem could be?
    Thanks so much!

    Ok the image aren't loading.
    ithink the problem is the file name with spaces.
    bc has no problem with them and your server is....  Just a guess

    http://www.debijlgolf.nl/images/saint%20junien%205.jpg
    You should remove the spaces from your original file names...
    it's know to cause problems in some cases
    Do not use any spaces
    Most operating systems can handle documents with spaces in the file name without a problem, but it's not a good idea for Web page documents. The problem is that when a URL is displayed it is usually displayed with an underline. And so many people interpret a space as being the underscore character instead, and so can't get to your page. Plus, in order to use a space in a URL or Web file name, many browsers require that that space be encoded- either as a plus-sign or %20.
    Hope this helps

  • Why are some (but not all) of my Muse slideshow widget images rotated differently than when I edited them in Photoshop CC?

    I have a few dozen photographs embedded in the slideshow widget. Most of them appear exactly as I edited them in Photoshop, but several appear rotated clockwise 90 or 180 degrees. Does anyone know why this is happening, and ideally, how I can correct this problem? Thank you.

    Please share the site url , also refer to this post and check if this helps :
    Why are some of my images importing upside down?
    Secondly , if you change the fill type then does that makes difference ?
    Thanks,

  • Images rotated when added in slideshow widget

    When using a slideshow widget in Muse, why are added images
    displayed 90 or 180 degrees from the original image?

    Thanks for the quiuck reply - it is really appreciated.  Further investigation resulted in discovering that only photos from my iPad are being rotated.  Still don't know why.  All other photos are OK.  The iPad photos took a circuitous route getting to my computer - but don't know why that should matter.  Guess I'll have to delve into the HTML code to see if I can find the problem.  If not, I may need further help!

  • Multiple slideshow widgets mix up images

    i have tried to use the adobe muse thumbnail slideshow widget on multiple pages of a website, 20 separate pages and counting, but the slideshows are published with images mixed at random across each other. sometimes the images are correct in the project but persist in publishing incorrectly, and i've chcked on different browsers and refreshed and deleted caches and all that. so it seems the problem may be in the publishing??

    oops!!! working on the possibility that some of the picture files use the same name!! aaarrrggghhhh

  • November Update Erased Slideshow Widget

    My site is PandV.org. On there I have 4 picture galleries each using a basic slideshow widget. They resided on a separate galleries page, but single-picture links to the galleries page are on the home page. The same for both my desktop and phone versions (I have no distinct tablet version).
    When I upgraded to the November update, every one of these slideshow widgets simply vanished from the galleries page, on both my desktop and phone versions!
    Even more odd, the pictures on the home page that linked to the galleries page had also vanished, on both desktop and phone versions!
    So, I called up the version of the site in muse made before the November update. I went to the galleries page and copied and pasted the slideshow widgets to from the old desktop galleries page to the November update galleries page. The paste worked perfectly.
    But there's more: now, the pictures and links on the home page re-appeared, in perfect place. And the same is true for the phone version.
    The problem seems solved to me, but I thought you'd want to know of this decidedly odd behavior.

    I'm not sure, but I think so, yet I really don't know how.
    As per my description of the problem, when I pasted the slideshow widget from the working pre-november muse file to the November release file from which they had disappeared, it asked me if i wanted to unlock the relevant layers.  I didn't understand why that question came up, since as far as I was aware all layers were visible and unlocked.
    So, I told it to unlock what it needed to and the paste went ahead as normal.
    Yet, aside from that, it is still a mystery to me how the one paste operation I described fixed the missing slideshow widgets on both layouts (desk and phone) gallery pages, and put back the images that linked to them on the home page.
    I wish I could be of  more help, but as I mentioned above, the non-working November update muse file doesn't exist anymore.
    As always, thanks for your quick attention and commitment to make Muse a great product.
    P.S.: I'm sure they were visible and working on the published site before the November update. It is the file file that uploaded that working site that I edited with the November update and noticed the problem. I check this site regularly and such an important part of it missing would have been noticed by me or my co-workers.

  • Adobe Muse slideshow widget not working on Ipad

    The Muse slideshow widget i'm using is working fine in desktop version (on my Imac and Macbook Pro Retina), but the targets (buttons) are not working when i open the website in my Safari Ipad. When i open in Ipad Chrome, it's working fine.
    The address is http://www.safra7.com/clientes/pontual/linha_tempo
    I can't figure what's wrong, after trying various solutions.
    Thanks,
    Felipe de Mello.

    To answer your first question, a widget is essentially a app extension. Try the stock market app below, once you download it you'll be able to add a stock market widget to Notification Center. If the link below doesn't work go to the App Store and enter Stocks Widget by Peeksoft in the search field.

  • A better way to edit content within a slideshow widget?

    Is there a better way to edit the content of slideshow widgets? I understand the way to see the content of a slideshow and edit it is by viewing thumbnails, but this is a very clunky way to be dealing with a lot of content! It would be super cool to be able to link an entire folder to a slideshow widget and have it update when changes are made in that folder. that way designers could organize their files in finder or bridge and then simply update the slideshow link - i would love that!

    I was afraid of that...
    I don't use lightroom or Photoshop. I used to be a Photoshop user until the cost became so prohibitive. I have since switched to using GIMP as my eternal editor, it's native files are .xcf (musch like the Photoshop .PSD) but Aperture doesn't support .xcf files and I doubt they ever will since GIMP is a free open source tool, rather than a commercial product.
    I have been playing with 3.01 now for a few days and finding that the heal tool and burn and dodge tools seem to be improved. Even though in GIMP they were destructive to the original RAW file those items were noticeably better in the external editor.
    Also, any extreme editing still needs to be done outside of Aperture, so I will take a Catapult or just keep my current workflow....

  • Why animated gifs disappear in slideshow widget?

    I opened my project with new version of Muse 2014 but animated gifs on the slideshow widget disappear.  They are already visible in previous version of Muse. I made a new slideshow and add some animated gif but there is a blank page when i preview the page. Is there a bug or am i doing something wrong?

    The exclamation mark is an indication that the file path/link between the thumbnail and the full size master has been broken. Do the following:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
    2 - run Option #4, Rebuild Database.

  • How do I set the default Hero image in a Muse slideshow widget when using Free Form Thumbnails?

    Hello,
    I am trying to find out how to set the default Hero image when using a Muse slideshow widget and in the Layout section I have the "Free Form Thumbnails"
    box checked.
    In other words, when the page loads I want to define which image displays as the first Hero image.
    If I do not select the "Free Form Thumbnails" option, the top left Thumbnail image always displays first. This is fine.
    But when I select the Free Form Thumbnails" checkbox I don't know how to define which image shows first as the Hero image.
    I have a short video at this link where I illustrate the question:
    http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.mp4
    I have added a WMV video file at the link below:
    http://amson.org/misc/default-hero-image-1.wmv
    Okay… I think I've worked out how to do it!
    [1] First have the "Free Form Thumbnails" box UNCHECKED.
    [2] Organize the Thumbnails and place the image that you want to be the first Hero image when the page loads in the top left corner of the Thumbnails group.
    [3] When you "Preview Site In Browser" the Thumbnail image in the top left corner will always display as the first Hero image.
    [4] If you want "Free Form Thumbnails" go ahead now and SELECT that checkbox.
    [5] Whichever image was in the top left of the Thumbnail group before you checked "Free Form Thumbnails" will still show up as the first Hero image when the page loads, regardless of where that thumbnail image is located within the Thumbnail images group.
    Thanks very much.
    Chris.

    Hi,
    The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
    Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
    Hope it clarifies the things.
    Regards,
    Ved

  • Thumbnail images of Thumbnail Slideshow Widget not releasing Tooltips

    I'm running Muse v2.2 Build 6 CL 770942 and had mistakenly assigned a number of tooltips to a number of thumbnail images of a thumbnail slideshow widget. After deleting those tooltips via the contextual menu on selected thumbnails and the "edit image properties" item in that menu, and after re-publishing to my Creative Cloud-hosted non-live site, and after refreshing my page in Safari 6.0.1 (8536.26.14) running OS 10.8.2, the tooltips are still there. This seems to be a bug.

    Sachin,
    Here's the link to my page: http://van-garde2businesscatalystcom.businesscatalyst.com/ads-2.html
    I cleared the cache to no avail.
    I tried opening the page in Firefox 15.0.1, and the tooltips not only still appear when I rollover the thumbnails, but all thumbnails, menu links, and heroes are totally off the page to the right!!
    Help!!!

  • Can i create a button that links to the slideshow widget

    I am creating a portfolio site for a class. It is a one page site, One of my sections is going to be my "work" section. I want to categorize my work, So I have made buttons that pertain to each category of work. Is there anyway that I can link this to the slideshow widget. When one of the category buttons is clicked I want the slideshow widget to pop up. Is this possible? I can not find a tutorial and I am very new to Muse. Thank you!

    Hi,
    You can't directly associate a button with a slideshow. However, you can embed slideshow in a tooptip target and add the button to the tooltip trigger as mentioned in this post : Re: How do i create a button which will show new content on same page?

  • Need help with slideshow widget appearing online

    Hey out there a big thanks in advance for this.
    I have slideshow widgets set up for my artwork and graphics pages on my website and they were working fine before the last Muse update.  I then went into Muse to add more images to said slideshows and export and upload them just like normal.  Everything went fine and then I finished uploading and viewed my site and the widgets did not appear...I also experienced some margin formatting difficulties but that is probably unrelated.  I have not changed any permissions and have not changed anything besides adding in a few images only to one of the two slideshow widgets.  I have completely deleted and re-exported and re-uploaded everything as in all of the files twice and still nothing.  I really need some help with this one as soon as possible.  Again a huge thank you.  To see my site please go to www.joeldsiegel.com  I have been using stablehost and the ftp client is CPanel if that is of any other help.  Thanks again!!

    Sorry, should've been more clear on that. Yes, the images
    have been converted to movie clips, adn the linkage ID's are
    img1-img8. The reasoning behind that is that, at some point, new
    pictures will take the place of the current pictures.
    The attempt at randomness is actually a leftover from a
    previous incarnation of this project. Ideally I'd like the pictures
    to always play through in the same order, but I'd like it to start
    at a random place in that order so it's not always the same image
    coming up when the page first comes up. So, basically, I left it in
    for lack of a better idea.
    As for the setInterval() and runTimer() and "Void" question,
    that part is complete patchwork on my part. I'm not surprised that
    I missed something or included something extra. There isn't any
    code beyond what's attached in my previous post.
    I think, at the time, I was hoping that the "if(timePassed
    > nTimeout){" part was on the right track, but are you saying
    that the void cancels that part out?

  • How can I easily create a lightbox from a thumbnail slideshow widget?

    I have already created a slideshow using the slideshow widget with thumbnails. I have 9 images loaded into it with the thumbnails remaining next to them when the thumbnail is clicked so that I can click any thumbnail OR click through them with an arrow. BUT, I would also like to be able to click the 'image' (the hero?) and have a lightbox pop up with the image alone and arrows to click through this way as well.    How on earth can I do this without having to re-do my current design?  I cannot figure it out.
    Thanks for any help!

    Hi
    You can surely achieve this using any composition , for example insert a composition and then insert another widget in that.
    This way the image on click would show another widget with images or information.
    Sorry but currently as you have mentioned , you are using Slideshow and we cannot insert other object in slideshow.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit
